Obama didn't wait long after Tuesday's devastating elections to give critics another reason to question his leadership, but this time the subject matter was more grim than a pair of governorships.
After news broke out of the shooting at the Fort Hood Army post in Texas, the nation watched in horror as the toll of dead and injured climbed. The White House was notified immediately and by late afternoon, word went out that the president would speak about the incident prior to a previously scheduled appearance. At about 5 p.m., cable stations went to the president. The situation called for not only his trademark eloquence, but also grace and perspective.
Our local tv may have used one line total from Obama’s presser. That was yesterday. Today, the clip has not been repeated.
Hear, hear.
To add insult to injury, he wants to attend the memorial service for the fallen soldiers. Never let a photo up go to waste.
For the first time in my adult life, I am ashamed of my (sic) President.
He’s an arrogant scumbag who isn’t worthy of wiping the asses of our soldiers. This entire administration is classless and ignorant.
To add insult to injury, he wants to attend the memorial service for the fallen soldiers. Never let a photo up go to waste.
snort, tell us how you really feel!
(applause)
As one, 300 million Americans all thought the exact same thing last night as they announced the shooter’s name.
2 words.
First one starts with an “F”.
Always Someone spilled coffee on his tie: "Oh dear, poor thing, I feel so, so sorry for you." When the neighbors' truck was stolen: "Oh dear, poor things, I feel so, so sorry for them." When a friend's husband died: Oh dear, poor thing,I feel so, so sorry for her. While on a long trip we drove by four separate vehicle accidents, and each time she said the same thing, "Oh dear, poor things, I feel so, so sorry for them". For a narcissist the main purpose of other people is to provide a steady supply of attention, praise and devotion.
and the second an ‘M’
uckIslam!
I thought Clinton was bad, but "bad" like a rake, a scoundrel.
But I always thought he was an American.
Obama's like having Kofi Annan as our President. A freakin Indonesian street kid.
He's as American as elephant soccer.
yup. I intend to ask everyone I see for the next week if that is what indeed they said/thought at that very minute.
Obama makes Clinton look like a conservative.
HOW did we ever get into this pickle??
I know, I know....too many uneducated people with their hands out were duped into believing that just by voting for him, all their dreams would come true. Too bad we couldn’t prove that Soros and the cabal were pulling the strings to crash the system just at the right moment.
Obama and Islam are a vile and seething pox on America.....well deserved until the will to fight them comes forward.
